Things to do in Osaka

I was worried about whether I needed to buy an Express Pass, but I only bought an admission ticket! Open run success! I arrived around 6:15 AM and got the very front row! And I visited on July 14th! I was worried because I saw on Instagram that people had to wait 2-3 hours or more, but the wait was usually 20-40 minutes, and the lines moved quickly, so I got to ride many different attractions! Pino Cafe? The restaurant inside Nintendo, I went around 11 AM and got right in without waiting in line to eat! It was pretty, but the taste... haha. Anyway, I hope everyone has a fun and happy time when they visit!

I got the Express Pass 8 because my main focus was Super Nintendo World and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. It was definitely worth it since I barely had to wait in line and saved a lot of time. The rides were fun, and we had plenty of time to explore the food stalls and souvenir shops around the park.

This 2 day pass is really amazing! We used it to visit Osaka castle museum, skipped the line for ticket by just scanning the QR code. Then, we used it to take three boats different boats at different locations, all very nice. Also, we visisted observation deck, ferries wheel and housing museum. This ticket has great value and save time. More photos are attached for reference.

I had planned to get here for sunset but never worked out. Even though it was wet it was a clear view of Osaka on the roof top. I got carried away so didn't get chance to eat a proper meal so was great could get a snack and a sakura ice cream, which was very delicious. To top it off got to wat whilst taking in the view. There is also a souvenir shop and if stamp collecting is part of your trip there is a stamp book in the shop

Abeno Harukas Observatory is a must-visit viewpoint in Osaka. Its impressive height offers a 360-degree panoramic view of the entire city, providing an incredibly open vista. On clear days, you can see for miles, and both daytime and nighttime views have their unique charm, with the night view being particularly stunning as the city lights create a spectacular sea of illumination. The observatory boasts a spacious layout with glass designs that ensure an unobstructed view, making it excellent for photography. It never feels cramped, allowing visitors to stroll and admire the scenery at their leisure. There's also a cafe and seating areas inside, where you can relax and enjoy the high-altitude views. Compared to other observatories, Harukas stands out for its height and superior comfort. Crowd control is also managed quite well, contributing to a very pleasant overall experience. While the ticket price might not be the cheapest, it is definitely worth it. Overall, it's a highly recommended attraction. If you want to see the most beautiful panoramic views of Osaka, this place will certainly not disappoint!

This is well worth it. Beleive me it was a hot day and last thing is having to line up and wait in a massive Queue. This place gets packed. Great thing if u book/make a reservation you skip these lines. It was a great experience they even had spray machines for you on way up to cool yourself down. They also have souvenir shops inside the castle to buy memorabilia. Its quite a massive space to explore and you get a good glimpse of history and the area is just magnificent to be in. You can also pay for boat trip down the river & other excursions. Wonderful experience.

The ferris wheel is a really fun way to take in city views! Located inside the Hep Five building on the 7th floor. We visited as a couple, usually its x4 people to a capsule but as it wasn't super busy they let us in as a pair in our own capsule which was nice!

it was truly amazing experience. no need to pre book anything but just to scan the QR code and it is all set. the only drawback is that I misunderstood the nintendo world entrance voucher as the express but all in all it was a pleasant experience and will use klook pass again!

Gardens are so beautiful! A great way to spend a relaxing day. The meal set was so good! There are things for people of all ages. Games and claw machines for kids and adults. You use your key to charge throughout the facility and checkout at the end. We would do it again!
